MEDICAL ETHICS AND CERVICAL CANCER

Summary/Abstract: Cancer remains a serious and often fatal illness. The training and availability of health professionals specializing in pain management is of crucial importance in patients with cervical cancer, a disease that, by nature, affects only female sex. These sick people have the right to receive treatments that allow them to maintain a quality of life compatible with human dignity. The ethical debates on cervical cancer are gaining value, the views expressed being intimately related to the cultural and religious references of patients and society, as well as their conception of life and death.
